Navie Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 You know 'Match of the day' that comes on BBC 1? Ok...for future FM's there could be something that lets us see highlights of all the premier league matches, but the matches would be like 1-3 minutes long for each match. Also this includes 'Goal of the season' and also at the moment we have 'Player of the year', 'World player of the year', it could clips of key passes, skills goals of that player. But the good thing about this might be that when the match is showing the camera angles change to make it look more like it does on t.v. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackter Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 You can already watch all the goals scored from each day of results. There's a link on the results page. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neji Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I think he means as in a little sort of 'packaged show' like MOTD. I remember in LMA(? Could be wrong) they had a mock motd. It would be presented as a TV Show and it would show highlights, horribly done but it was a good idea at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moaner Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 this is the first -for-future-title idea that i genuinly fully back.....great idea to whoever posted it errrm Naive. i know you can look individually at all the goals etc but a "match day round-up" option would be amazing. Ecspecially now with 3D (humph). Even better, i think you should have the option to watch this round-up before actually seeing the other peoples results so you are anticipating what will happen, who will score next......a very, very nice little feature for SI to think about.

Maybe some managers do, but it's not part of the job. I presume some of them have sex with their wives. Doesn't mean we should be able to that!

Ackter Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 It's amazing how many features FM has that most people haven't even noticed. Some people don't know you can change the tone of manager mind games for example - there's a "Type" drop-down in the top right of the screen that allows to select different types of comments.

Just checked it out, works. I just don't like the way when once match finishes it goes and says 'Generating match report', instead it should load in the background and say 'Liverpool Vs Arsenal' only for the highlights.

Ok this might seem like I am pushing for something that you people don't want but cant the match highlights lead from one match to the other?
